August 30, 2017 No Comments

So I’ve teamed up with the amazing brand USN to bring to you a recipe for a delicious, healthy, protein-packed alternative to brownies. USN sent me their vegan chocolate protein and it has to be one of the best I have tried! It’s suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and comes in both chocolate and vanilla flavour. These brownies only use natural sweeteners, USN’s delicious vegan protein powder, and of course, absolutely no flour; making them fudgier and more gooey than ever.. you’re seriously going to LOVE these.

I’ve always adored banana bread, and have experimented with many plant based versions in the past. That’s why I was so excited when I perfected this recipe! It uses purely plant based and gluten free ingredients, and the addition of the moist blueberries makes them the perfect healthy treat. Try it warm with a dollop of coconut yoghurt and a drizzle of nut butter.

ROASTED VANILLA ALMOND BUTTER

May 14, 2017 No Comments

There’s nothing quite like the taste of homemade creamy roasted almond butter.. and at a fraction of the cost of store bought jars – this is an absolute must. I love having a delicious alternative to peanut butter, along with the incredible health benefits: healthy fats, protein, antioxidants, vitamin E, magnesium.. they’re also the perfect skin food! I recommend smothering on toast and topping with chewy medjool dates (pictured further down). yum.
